Cervical Disc Surgery

Cervical disc herniation involves the displacement of disc material between the neck vertebrae from its normal position, pressing on nerves or sometimes the spinal cord.

Why does it happen?

• Degenerative changes with age
• Strain or sudden neck movement
• Injury or accident
• Sometimes without a clear cause

Symptoms

Depends on the location and severity of compression:

• Neck pain extending to shoulder, arm, and fingers
• Numbness, tingling, or weakness in arm/hand
• Difficulty moving the neck
• If pressing on spinal cord: Walking difficulties, leg stiffness, or bladder issues.

Treatment

Conservative Treatment: Relative rest, medication, and physical therapy (most cases improve).

Surgery is required when: Severe persistent pain fails conservative care, significant neurological weakness exists, or spinal cord compression (myelopathy) occurs.

Cervical discectomy surgeries are safe and effective in the hands of spine specialists. We perform these surgeries with high precision and safety.
